When using an external Speedlite, use an EX-series Speedlite.The

flash cannot be fired with an EZ-, E-, EG-, ML-, orTL-series

Speedlite set in theTTL or A-TTL autoflash mode. Use the

Speedlite’s manual flash mode instead if provided.

When using an EX-series Speedlite, press the built-in flash back into the

camera before mounting the external flash.
Use the built-in flash at least 1 m/3.3 ft away from the subject. Closer
distances will have the flash partially obstructed.

When using the built-in flash, detach any hood attahed to the lens. A

lens hood will partially obstruct the flash coverage.

When a super telephoto lens or fast, large-aperture lens is attached, the

built-in flash coverage might be obstructed.

The built-in flash’s coverage is effective with lens focal lengths as short

as 18mm.
